Two Gryphius Tragedies in English Translation
How do the first tragic plays of Andreas Gryphius (1616-1664) shed light on today's political unrest and religious controversies in the Middle East and the Caucasus? Frequent updates remind us that revolt, imprisonment, torture, execution, and beheading still transpire in these regions. Such reports unveil remarkable parallels to the shocking and detailed accounts offered by Gryphius in his first two tragedies. The neighboring powers of Iran, Russia, and Turkey continue to exert influence on nearby minor states. Regional conflict among religions and between forces vying for political power remains the same today as during the lifetime of Gryphius. Such discord also triggered the earlier hist...

This book traces the widely varying critical reception of Andreas Gryphius (1616-1664), the greatest German poet of the seventeenth century. Although his work was respected in his native Silesia both in his lifetime, and in the years after his death, his reputation was almost eclipsed during the later eighteenth century. However, new interpretations of him by Romantic authors, and an emerging ideological consensus about Germany's national literature, brought about Gryphius' critical rehabilitation and enhanced appreciation of the qualities of his work; ...

Poets Laureate in the Holy Roman Empire
Petrarch’s revival of the ancient practice of laureation in 1341 led to the laurel being conferred on poets throughout Europe in the later Middle Ages and the Early Modern period. Within the Holy Roman Empire, Maximilian I conferred the title of Imperial Poet Laureate especially frequently, and later it was bestowed with unbridled liberality by Counts Palatine and university rectors too. This handbook identifies more than 1300 poets laureated within the Empire and adjacent territories between 1355 and 1804, giving (wherever possible) a sketch of their lives, a list of their published works, and a note of relevant scholarly literature. The introduction and various indexes provide a detailed account of a now largely forgotten but once significant literary-sociological phenomenon and illuminate literary networks in the Early Modern period. A supplementary Volume 5 of Poets Laureate in the Holy Roman Empire. A Bio-bibliographical Handbook will be published in June 2019.
Emblematik im Barock in Andreas Gryphius` "Catharina von Georgien"
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Neuere Deutsche Literatur, Note: 1,3, Universität Konstanz, Veranstaltung: Barock, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: "Keine Epoche der europäischen Kulturgeschichte ist so von Widersprüchen geprägt wie das Zeitalter des Barock." Während sich zu Zeiten der Renaissance der Mensch seiner Freiheit und seiner schöpferischen Möglichkeiten bewusst wurde, sich erstmals als eigenständiges Individuum zu begreifen schien und sich ein dem Diesseits zugewandtes Lebensgefühl entwickelte, so scheint das Weltbild des barocken Zeitalters dem vollständig entgegen zu stehen. Nahezu jeder Lebensbereich ist von Antithetik geprägt: Ewigkeit und Zei...
The Constructive Art of Gryphius' Historical Tragedies
This study clarifies how Gryphius worked with a variety of source materials to artistically construct his four historical tragedies. Three conventional dramatic forms and techniques (choruses, poeticized monologues or Prunkreden, and visionary phenomena) are examined to determine how he poetically heightened his source material to proclaim vanitas mundi and the corollary message of gloria coeli. His creative use of these traditional conventions established the procedural mode of drama construction followed in Germany until the end of his century.
